It's kind of funny that the one issue a leftist candidate can take a right-wing position on and pretty consistently continue to be sure of left-wing support is gun control, which is also the issue where taking a right-wing position will kill you among Evelyn Normielib.

what do you say really. this collusion between the everyday people and the state, the unification of vigilantism and state violence, is the bread and butter of all patriarchal violence, the oiled machine of fascism. your neighbours are nazis, the voters are nazis, etc.

a microcosm of everything. a mob surrounds a trans woman, accuses her of "attempting to enter a women's bathroom", beats up her and her nonbinary partner, then the state swoops in and dumps the trans woman in a men's prison illegally (a rape threat), and both are now at risk of longer jail time

This woman was beaten by a mob for *standing outside of a woman's bathroom* in Louisiana, not even going in, and they've literally just fabricated several charges against her and her partner anyway to justify abusing them further. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/08/a-mo... On the up side...

Just FYI Haley Stevens had approx 70M spent on her behalf in the primary, and roughly 30 to 35M of that is from AIPAC, while 12-15M is from "A Stronger Michigan" and 7-10M is from "Center for Democratic Priorities" and we don't know (yet?, forever?) who their donors are.

Surveillance as a tool needs be understood in the context of the state being a machine that enforces class domination. Bourgeoisie aren’t sweating speeding tickets and their other crimes aren’t getting caught by Flock cameras

any discussions about surveillance and civil liberties should be downstream of what cops actually are (mafia with zero civilian control or accountability) and not what they hypothetically should be

There’s no surveillance infrastructure that isn’t sharing data with ICE, because there’s no version of surveillance infrastructure that wouldn’t have a litany of incentives to do this

Outlook search can't find an email with a direct word search for a URL received yesteday and puts emails from two weeks ago as the top results for the sender of what I need. Unbelievably worthless product
